In order to fully leverage the recent acquisition of closure moldmaker KTW, the new HyCAP version is optimized to integrate with KTW closure molds. The new system also allows better cooperation between the machine and hot runner through adaptive carriage control to maximize gate quality and consistency. Husky’s new Altanium color-change interface, said to enable significantly faster changeovers and lower scrap, is now standard. Also new are SmartStart and SmartStop control features. SmartStart automates startup procedures, while Smart-Stop allows for automatic production stoppages and faster restart following cycle interruptions.
